A family gratitude journal: create a ritual to remember ‘all the good things’ and install helpful habits that raise grateful hearts.
Life is full of good things, yet too often we don’t pay attention to them, and forget to be thankful. Scientific research has reported many benefits to practicing gratitude, including improvements in overall well-being and happiness.
The purpose of this journal is to create a platform for family connection. It’s about the opportunity to discuss with your children how their day went, what is going on for them, listening to how they are feeling and what they are looking forward to. We believe this time is sacred.
In a world wired to focus on the hate, the fear-dreaded events, and the things that go wrong - let’s consciously create the time to notice all the good, celebrate the love, and remember all the things to look forward to, that exist too.
This journal includes helpful prompts and quotes to encourage a grateful way of thinking. Connect with your family as you discuss all the good things - perhaps as you sit for a weekly dinner, or before bedtime a few times a week. Designed with flexibility in mind so you can use as often or little as you like.
Record all the good things here and create a beautiful reflection for years to come.

Olive + Page
“Olive + Page was created to help others make ordinary moments mean extraordinary things.”
Olive + Page is a boutique brand selling elegant journals and unique children’s picture books that have been lovingly designed and created from Nelson, New Zealand. Their pages bring together values of mindful living, conscious appreciation, sharing and connectedness, and capturing moments in time – to ultimately - enhance the moments and memories we have.
Olive + Page was born from a genuine desire to help others make moments count. It may be cliché, but life really does go by so fast.
The modern world we live in today has become rooted in rushing and synonymous with a constant state of busy. If we don’t stop to look around, connect with loved ones, and appreciate the current phase we’re in – before we know it, it’s gone.
Let their pages transform your days and those of the loved ones around you with their one common mission:
To promote presence, to increase connection, and to enhance moments of joy in everyday life.
“What I have realised is that the most significant memories are not in grand gestures, expensive gifts and fancy holidays. They are in ordinary moments. Little moments. Little things. The most significant moments are in people. In family. They are found in love. The hard part is often finding the awareness and appreciation for these little ordinary moments that already make up your life. The hard part … as simple as it sounds, is just noticing. But in doing so – in noticing – we have the power to create memorable moments and cherished stories. We have the power to turn the mundane everyday into extraordinary days. Creating an opportunity for people to do that – that is my why.”
- Livvy Buys, Director.
